Tin:NEW YORK CIRCUS,! from Fourteenth street, opposite the Academy of Music, New York, will give entertainments in Terre Haute on Thursday afternoon and evening, August 18th.

On the morning of their arrival the band will appear in full and splendid uniforms, conveyed through (lie principal streets in a chariot drawn by twenty-four horses, the handsomest ever seen together in harness.

The Vigos engage with the Parke Club, of Rockville, on Tuesday next. They play on the Vigo grounds in this city. A. close game may be expected, as the Vigos are determined to retrieve themselves.

THE Lewiston (Me.) Journal treats the ladies to this pleasant paragraph, which must possess a liwly interest fo our fair reader-: "We published a few da\s since an item referring to the presence of insects in the back switches so generally worn. Some doubted the facts stated. We can assure all doubting Thomasses that the fact was even so. A v.ell-known physician of this city has shown us two of these loathsome creatures, which were found in a switch of a lady in Auburn, exhibited to him, and transferred to glass vial, where they can be seen with the naked eye. Under a microscope their appearance is hideous. They have a brown, pointed head, any number of legs, a fuzz on the back, and crawl along with a wriggle something like a caterpillar. They appear to resemble the centipede family. The lady who discovered these had had trouble with her head ibr some weeks, but did not at first think 0" her switch containing the cause. The hack of her head was punctured and sore. The insect appears to burrow in the head like a wood-tick. The switch from which these were taken had previously been subjected to a half hour's steaming, but the creatures were as lively as "crickets. Another smaller kind lias been found which skip about like fleas. Ladies may well sav, "Yerilv our back hair is fearfully and wonderfully made."

Consolidation of Railroad Business. I'or some time past negotiations have been pending between the Indianapolis & St. Louis railroad and the Terre Haute, Indianapolis «.V Vandalia road, looking to a consolidation of the through passenger and freight business ol the two roads. The negotiations were opened by the officers of the roads for the purpose of harmonizing as far as possible the competition between them. The contract is that the road having the largest earnings, from through freight or passenger busi ness, shall give twenty-five per cent, of the excess to the other.

The contract was submitted to the Board of Directors of the Indianapolis and St. Louis road several days ago, and approved by them. On yesterday it was presented to the Board of Directors of the Terre Haute and Vandalia road, but we did not learn officially that it was ap pnived by them. If it should be, there will be no more cutting of rates and scrambles among agents for the business. /Wuoiiiywi/i.-f Journal.

We learn that the absence of several directors of the latter road occasions delay in acting upon the above arrangement.

THERE was a large assemblage of Germans at Turner Hall, last night, at which arrangements were made for the transmission of funds' to the National Agent, or Committee, of the German Relief Fund, in New York city. A very considerable subscription has already been secured, and measures were adopted, last evening, that will increase it materially. The temper of this meeting shows that our citizens of German descent will not be behind those of any other locality in furnishing material aid to their friends in their Fatherland. The meeting was one for business rather than display: few speeches were made, and much work was accomplished.

A WOMAN'S DEFENSE OP DRESS.--A lady friend wants this put in print, and we comply with her request with pleasure:

For myself I should be thankful to return to the habits of our grandmothers buy a bonnet which would do to wear ten years have three dresses, two for every day, and one for "nice," and wear them year after year till they wear out, without alteration also twist up my hair in a plain wad at the back of my head. I should then have more time for reading and study, and more money to spend in books, pictures and traveling, to say nothing of the unlimited time and money for doing good. And I know of very many women who would be only too happy to throw aside the wearisome shackles of fashion. But what would be the result? With the maiden—no more beaux with the wife—a cessation of devotion on the part of her husband. Result too dire to be contemplated for a moment. 1 speak what I know, and testify what I have seen. 1 have myself been to parties sensibly and economically clad, and 1 was despised and rejected of men again, I have been more fashionably and expensively attired, and I had more beaux than I knew what to bo with. By the way, why don't some of these wise and sensible bachelors court and marry among the vast army of working girls? They are dressed very simply, and are accustomed to habits of economy. They would be glad enough of good homes, and make excellent wives. They are personally attractive, and,I doubt not, are quite as refined and intelligent as the average of fashionable women. Why is there not a greater demand for them as wives, and why are not the Flora McFlimseys a drug in the markets? Let the facts speak for themselves. Be not deceived, O my brethren! With you lies the fault from you must come the remedy—refuse to pay court to silks, panniers, frills and chignons, and we shall go over to calico in battalions.

Normal School. •,

The special term of the Nor-mal School closed, on Wedneeday, and the teachers left for their homes,well pleased that they had spent their time and money so profitably. Teachers who have been teaching a number of years, and attending institutes, both in this State and other States, say this was the best institute they ever attended. Those who spent but a few days were well pleased, and some who came near the close of the term, expressed their regrets that they did not come a| the commencement. The parting words of the teachers were "we will meet you here next year." They feel that the Normal belongs to the teachers of the State, and they mean to use their efforts in making it known, so that all may be profited by it. The Normal has gained many friends, and the co-operation the faculty will receive will aid greatly in building up the school.

Those teachers who came from a distance, and at considerable expense, to attend a four weeks' institute in hot weather, show an eagerness to improve themselves in their profession, and Trustees will look them up when selecting their teachers. Several teachers attending the Normal School were selected by Superintendents at salaries much in advance of what they were getting. Two or three ladies got an increase of $150, and one gentleman an increase of $350.

About thirty persons living in Terre Haute are applicants for positions in the schools. Only four or five of those attended the Normal School, and the Superintendent selected several teachers from other parts of the State, on account of their manifesting more interest in the profession. That a person is a graduate of a High School or a good scholar, does not necessarily make liim a good teacher. If ihat were the case, all scholars would be teachers. We do not say that no person can become a good teacher who does not attend a Normal School, but we do say, no person can become a successful teacher, without studying his profession and a Normal School is the place for such study.

Normal Schools are concluded on the principle, that the teacher must understand that on which he operates,that with which he operates, and how to conduct an operation.

The science of mind is discussed, the, subjects to be taught required to be well understood and methods of imparting instruction given. Teachers should discard the degrading idea, that the right education of the human soul is a mere mechanical employment, that can be learned bv imitation, and so easy that no special preparation is required for it. The faculty won the atteetb and esteem of all the teachers attending the Institute. The masterly manner in which President Jones conducted his leading classes, and his method of presenting history, were special subjects of commendation. A person can not go into one of his classes, without getting some new thoughts, he can not sit down idly and not think. There can be no stronger evidence of a good teacher. President Jones has his whole soul in his work and the success if the Normal i. no mere a question of doubt. II-
